Tabali Sends Polk to the Rail
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Keanu Tabali opened to 30,000 from early position and Doug Polk defended his big blind.
Polk checked the J♠10♠8♣ flop and Tabali bet 35,000. Polk briefly considered his options before moving all in for approximately 140,000. Tabali made the call to put Polk at risk.
Doug Polk: K♦Q♦
Keanu Tabali: A♣Q♠
Polk was in bad shape against the bigger queen but still had outs in the form of an ace or a nine. Polk did not get what he needed on the J♥6♦ run out and his Main Event run came to an end while Tabali collected the last of his chips.
